Siena Callander, a senior investigator for the Farm Transparency Project, faces serious legal charges for filming the horrendous act of a man raping a pig. In many legal jurisdictions, recording such acts is not only allowed but encouraged as it aids in holding the offender accountable. Yet, Siena is being punished for capturing this act to expose this cruelty.

Siena Callander's actions fall in line with the conscientious efforts to stop animal abuse. By punishing her instead of the actual abuser, we send a dangerous message to potential future whistleblowers, thereby indirectly encouraging animal neglect and mistreatment.

Please sign this petition to request that all charges against Siena Callander be dropped and that attention be directed instead towards penalties for abusers and the implementation of stronger animal rights laws.
